This is a beautiful Lavender Amethyst Cathedral that has two large calcite crystals neat its center and many small calcite crystal formations in the bottom of the vug. Light purple crystals line the vug, with a border of sky blue chalcedony. Cement has been added (which is the standard practice in Brazil) to the outside of the geode and along the bottom where a base is formed, serving to stabilize the geode, cover all reinforced cracks, and thicken its rim. This is a beautiful cathedral from Brazil.
